mounted to conventional vehicle-hub members, wherein the body includes oppositely
disposed annular recesses to receive inner and outer rim members therein, the rim
members being removably mounted to the wheel body by a plurality of socket-head bolts
wherein sealing rings are positioned and interposed between each rim member and each
annular recess of the central wheel body, whereby the rims may be provided with a
